Such a shady organization

[Natebishop3]

Magically a timeout appears when they were supposed to have none.

Magically time is put back on the clock, giving them over a second to get the shot off.

Dirty ass organization, and I wouldn't be surprised in the least if they were cheating.

 

[H.C.]

eh it is what it is.
the time put back on the clock was correct as the clips got the rebound at 1.1. i'm sure doc was yelling timeout as soon as the rebound was grabbed. too much time was ran off

I remember watching a Blazers game on TV vs the "Showtime" Lakers. It was the end of the half and the Blazers scored with just a few seconds left. The Lakers time keeper stopped the clock for a couple of seconds while they were bringing the ball up the court giving them just enough time to score. Pissed. Me. Off. Im pretty sure the time keepers / score keepers worked for the home team back then and I'm sure there were quite a few timekeeper shenanigans. Have I mentioned I hate the Lakers?

I can't believe I'm saying this, but....

I heard that it was a mistake on Blazer Broadcasting's end; that they incorrectly subtracted a timeout from the graphic while the officials were reviewing something, so in reality the Clips had one left. The time remaining seemed right to me, maybe a little generous but nothing extreme.

I'm sorry for being a bad fan. I love me a good conspiracy theory, but I can't get any anger over this one.

At any rate the Blazers assistants should be keeping track of both teams time outs so I doubt there were any surprises.

But Wheels kept saying that he was getting it from the scorers monitor. Not from the broadcasting crew. They have a monitor that is provided by the arena that is a live feed of stats and other important info. He said that's where he got it from.

Interesting, maybe they deducted it incorrectly then. I remember Barrett saying "this isn't a timeout, it's the officials checking something" near the end of the game.

Or maybe a re-watch of the game will show they called an extra timeout and got inverse Chris-Webbered.

Honestly, if it was any other organization I wouldn't bat an eye, but since it's the Clippers.......

So who DVR'd it and is willing to investigate?

According to the ESPN game log for last night, the Clippers used just their 6 allotted full timeouts and two 20 second timeouts. The timeouts were as follows:

9:51 1st quarter (Full)
2:49 2nd quarter (Full)
:21 2nd quarter (20 Second)
8:18 3rd quarter (Full)
5:33 4th quarter (Full)
3:20 4th quarter (Full)
:46 4th quarter (Full)
:01 4th quarter (20 Second)

There were 2 Official timeouts, which may have contributed to the confusion.
I detest the Clippers, but it looks like the timeouts were legit.

Until Chris Webber weighs in on this, we'll never know the truth.

That doesn't make you a bad fan at all. It

Wow good job.

I've seen this happen many times where a TV crew or scoreboard doesn't have the right time out totals. Happens all the time. It's annoying. But there was about 20 things that went wrong from the Blazers end that were more critical to our epic collapse last night.

HA. This was great.

Please... Before they even went to time out I said to myself "they are going to put more time on the clock".
